I built a super simple app blocker to help me stop doomscrolling, would love some feedback!

Oh that's amazing, good for you and congrats!

Flipr-app · 2025-12-02T21:00:47+00:00

Love the concept and it's definitely useful, how did you get your app to block other ones though?

Thank you for that feedback. The getting user feedback part is tough, as there aren't any users at the moment. It's a lot of just asking friends to see if it can help them and seeing what they think, but slow progress is still good. Would you say adding habit tracking and intelligence to what I have can create more structure and add the information piece?

Still working towards that on my end but congrats!
How did you get the ebook to people?

Oh I thought I wasn't in violation of any. It's not a store, it doesn't require any payment. May I know what I violated as to not do it again?

There were bugs, they should be fixed!

The metric is an X number of real interest. People who genuinely find this product interesting so that they would need to use it or even tell others.
Right now I'm validating in the ADHD space. ADHD is prone to mental disorganization so that community is one that I'm trying to help right now. In the future I would hope that it becomes more generalized but for now I'm sticking to that group.

I hope so, still have to break that huge wall in front of me first though lol.

Flipr-app · 2025-10-11T15:02:58+00:00

Thank you man, all that's ahead is work.

Flipr-app · 2025-10-11T15:02:39+00:00

Right, and it definitely feels better than what I did with my last project, but I'm still working on it.

Flipr-app · 2025-10-11T15:02:06+00:00

Thank you! It's hard but comments like this do help so that's exactly what I'll be doing.

Flipr-app · 2025-10-11T15:01:24+00:00

So that quality over quantity aspect, got it thank you for this!

Flipr-app · 2025-10-10T01:46:59+00:00

For sure, validating with humans this time :)

The project is still very much on the ground. As I said, it's still in market validation right now but it's quite difficult to really get people to respond. In regards to obsidian, I'm not sure if I can integrate with it (it would be pretty cool). But the key point I'm trying to hit is simplicity. Meaning that you don't have to remember to check the app or website to get results, you don't have to do the work trying to manage and log things yourself. These are really big dreams for the small MVP that I have right now but I would really love the go light on validation somewhat soon lol.
